I read all posts. Im worried about you, @Daonnachd.

Warning: TMI: Short version: Yesterday, I developed hemorrhoids- inside and out. And today they began bleeding. Like a heavy day on your period. I called my dr and she said to skip my blood thinner tonight and watch for things like lightheadedness, vomiting, etc. Yesterday, I was in pain and miserable. Today I feel better even after having a couple bowel movements. My dr even said to go to the ER if I get abdominal pain, etc. Nope. Just eating high-fiber crackers and drinking water. End TMI.
